    Sub caught on fire?

    For some reason outside of my power my 08 Bl with cooling caught fire. I was on my way home from work about an hour and a half ago, i smelt something kinda like burning leaves so I turned the radio off and pulled over and opened the hatch of my jimmy and the sub was on fire. I could see this bcuz there is aplexiglass window on the front of my box... I have no idea how or why it did this, it was on fire at the spider btw. The amp wasn't warm nor the wires... The amp isa sundown saz 1500d. 0g wire, 12g speaker wire. Itwas only playing for about 5 min when it all happened. I think the warrenty is still in effect, but I'm not sure if that is even covered. The gains are all set low probably well below where they should be. I will post pics tomorrow when i get out of school. I took them tonight. In them you can see the spider still glowing red... Thanks in advance, Mikey

    Yea I can't wait to go to school. It should be a good experience..
  7. I'm not sure if i will even have a ride now, since my sub caught on fire. If i can sell the motor i will buy a xcon, and hopefully have a box and everything done by then. But I'm not sure if this dude wants to buy the motor, or how longs it will take to ship the xcon. the box is no prob thats like 2-3 days, but i will still be going no matter what.... Haha

    08 BL Model

    There's your problem...you MUST set your subsonic 2-3Hz below your tuning frequency of your enclosure. Otherwise..that happens. Standard 18" recones are $90..other options are more plus shipping. You can probably sell the motor on here if you want to sell it, there is a gentleman in the general section that is looking for a 08 BL motor. oooo Kewl that will be helpful... :bigclap:

    Sub caught on fire?

    It wasn't any higher than it usually is. If anything it was lower. I was just headed home with it about halfway up. No setting have been changed since i have had the same setup. If it isn't going to be covered i don't really want to send it in, because that would just take money from me getting a new sub. But i really don't think that it was my fault i don't know how it would just catch on fire when i have ran more to it than this and it was fine. I'm not saying it is fi's fault, but maybe just a malfunction within the sub... We've never had a sub spontaneously combust, but it will happen if there is a loose nut behind the volume knob, gain knob, or subsonic filter knob. Read what shizzon said...he is dead on. The subsonic is on zero. I am not trying to get anything out of anybody or try to get a new free sub or anything. But i guess i was wanting a new sub anyway, I was going to sell this one though But wutever i guess. Il still post pic. I suppose i just have one big ass paper weight now. lol...
